It is all in the attitude. Even everyday items can be made to look more dramatic with a proper attitude. This poor, old pineapple left its native Costa Rica while it was still young and green. On its way here, it saw Florida, and finally got to the end of the road at the Pacific North West. Here, in a subtle February weather we have, it came to its prime, showing the majestic golden colors of age and sweetness.

Every once in a while, one out of many anonymous items around us get lucky and cheats the oblivion by being noticed.
(OK, in my household, the chance of getting notice by my camera might be slightly higher than in yours.)

This particular pineapple yelled at me this evening asking to be seen. Its yellow was noticeable enough in the semidarkness to put it on the stand and turn on my lights. I even got out my old Tamron 28-105mm/2.8 for this occasion. Idea was to make it more dramatic with strong light from the back while dark shadows all around would emphasize the fruit. I sharpened only the front part, and left the rest soft but recognizable.
There should be no question what is it, and if I did my job right, you should be able to smell the pineapple if you scratch your screen.

Go ahead - try it. You won't know if it is good unless check it out. :)
